Tatai Dewes

I have over a decade of expertise delivering sustainable, multi-modal transport infrastructure across Aotearoa and the United Kingdom. My work spans integrated transport and planning projects with a strong focus on people and place.

I’ve held senior roles within local government, leading major walking, cycling, public transport and highway transformation projects, as well as transport assessments for large residential and commercial developments. I bring technical expertise in transport engineering, junction modelling and transport policy, and I enjoy translating complex issues into clear, evidence-based recommendations that support collaborative decision-making.

My iwi affiliations are Ngāti Porou, Ngāti Rangitihi and Ngāti Whakaue.
